Pittsburgh certainly offers its fair share of unique experiences. Think about it. We can drink and eat dinner in a former church. Or, we can gaze out onto the river and the city skyline while having brunch in a former historic train station. And, we can get away – for a night or more – at this former YMCA that’s transformed into a charming hotel and a neighborhood gathering spot.

Tucked in East Liberty, the Ace Hotel Pittsburgh sits in a more than century-old, historic building that once housed the YMCA.

And, when you’re hungry, head down to the Lobby Bar, where you can toast the Burgh with a glass of wine, a cocktail, or a beer. Nibble on snacks from the bar, too.
